We can all admit we love free testers and deluxe skincare goodies. And many of us have probably discovered our favorite products through a trial size, which is when you see the results and effectiveness of the formula before committing to a full size. In this blog post, we'll review Blunt Skincare's trial-size program, how to choose which of our CBD face oils is right for you, and how to get a sample.

Choosing The Right CBD Face Oils
You may be familiar with hemp seed oil from health stores or Whole Foods. But did you know these snackable seeds are also squeezed into an oil, which is a widely used skincare ingredient for its emollience and efficacy in moisturizing skin while increasing hydration levels? If you want to smoothen and soften the skin for a more hydrated, supple look — choose Seed Hydrating Face Oil.
Cannabis research is quickly progressing to discover new molecules that can be potentially used for medicinal or cosmetic purposes. Cannabidiol (CBD) is the most popular cannabinoid, with early research on benefiting the skin by regulating the skin's endocannabinoid system, normalizing oil production, and as a cosmetic ingredient with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. If you want to soothe irritated or sensitive skin for a more moisturized and clear complexion, — choose Isolate Pure CBD Balancing Face Oil.
While Isolate is a pure CBD, the full-spectrum extracts contain CBD and other rare cannabinoids, adding more potential benefits to the ingredient and formulation. In addition to this double dosage, Moonrock Full Spectrum Renewal Face Oil contains potent botanical extracts to protect the skin from free radicals and the environment for a more youthful, brighter complexion.
How Do You Use CBD Face Oils?
There are many ways you can incorporate CBD face oils into your skincare routine. While your preference on the application method or specific step of your skincare regimen does matter, it’s not more important than using CBD face oils consistently. This will help you to fully reap their dope benefits. Here’s more info:
- Use the CBD face oils like you would a regular face oil. We recommend applying them on clean skin and after water-based treatments to seal in all the good-for-you moisture. Try warming up 2-3 drops of oil in your palms and gently pressing onto the skin, allowing it to absorb for one minute.
- Mix them with your moisturizer. Regular face creams contain up to 50% of oils mixed with water and, in some cases, lower than 20%. Give your moisturizer game a boost by mixing in a few drops of the cannabis face oils before application. The best part of this method is that you can use it with any moisturizer.
- Use it with massage tools. Oils lubricate the skin and are a perfect medium to use with massage tools. By doing this, you may unlock additional benefits like facial muscle relaxation, lymphatic drainage, depuffing, and lifting.
